this book was mainly about showing off worldbuilding. which is fine, but nowhere near as compelling as the first one. also comes across as, if i didn't know better, tv-series bait, with the goofy new characters, banter dialogue over inner monologues, and the lavish descriptions of place and people. the pacing is weird but that's supposedly because 2 and 3 were supposed to be one book.
